2jzge swap into my 65 mustang have a q
 

Hey guys ya i have a 92 2jzge with a 5 speed and a great desire to put it into my mustang which has an i6 in it stock. But i'm not sure about how to go about making the mounts to keep all the right angles. Does anyone know of any shops that would be able to either make them for me or assist with drawing up some specs for them.

Maybe watch Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, oh wait wrong motor.:bigthumb:

You might be able to get some from Driftmotion. They make all kinds of stuff for 7m and JZ motors.

Just checked out that site and it seems pretty nice.

yeah they got a lot of nice stuff, i want to get their 66mm turbo kit for the 7m

yea who dosnt..

Ok thank you i'll try their site.

I recommend you go to a local fabricator... too many factors involved and not a common swap (never heard of it). Any way about it you need to be posting in the MKIV forum. 2JZ wasn't stock in the MKIII and they might know of someone who's don it.

hmmm a mustang with a mans engine...
i think your onto something, dont tell ford and your rich

I was at the sand dunes all of last week.. I actually seen a 2jzgte in a sand rail.. I HAD to go talk to him about it and the motor was in a chassis originally built for 351 clevlend. He said it cost him bout 800 to get mounts fabbed up given it was in a sand rail so was prob.. lil stronger then a car would have to be. His motor was built as a sand rail motor eliminating all un necassary stuff like some sensor and what not... Was running an AEM stand alone.. puttin 700hp to the wheels in a 1900lbs car!!!!! YA it was fast.:outahere:
As for your mustang it doesnt matter if it was setup for I6 or v8 mounts are the same. but youd have to fab mounts, driveline, tranny mount and more then likely regear the rear end to be a close match to the 2j setup. the electrical would be hell if u use factory ecu but it could be done but would DEFINATLY have to be an electrical guru.. even running a stand alone there would be some electrical that would have to be done.. the I6 in your car maybe has 8 wires total and the jz prob 50 That go to the chassis itself. and then however many hundred for the ECM. Then bears the question wit all that trouble why not 2jzgte?? That would be a wild setup though i gotta say.. If it were me id do it for sure!!!!


BTW... im doin a 1jzgte swap i ordered front clip today. out goes the 7mgte for a rebuild to bout 500hp and refit into a sand rail!!!!! OH YEAH!!:bigthumb:

It may matter with a different car though as V8's can fit in a shorter bay than an I6.... not much to worry about in *most* older cars though as they left enough room air drop a pair of mechanics, tools and leave them with elbow room. :bigthumb: I only mention this for the benefit of any novices in room.




God I miss my OLD Camaro sometimes... I6 to V8 and later back to I6.

Definatly a good point...


As for old muscle
I miss my old 56 belair with 502 BBC. I could pretty much do a break dance in the engine bay... Sold it to buy my boat
